What right does wnman want THAT is
srsnder than I" he queen in such Il
realm? Why, the eagles of heaven cam
not fly Across that dominion Horses,
painting will, luherins flanks, are not
swift enough to run to the outpusts Of
that realm. They say that HE sun ncv.
or sets upon the English empire; but
have to tell YOU that on this realm of
woman's influence, eternity never marks
any bound. isabella fed from the Span
ish throne, pursued by the nations
anathema; hut size who is queen in ii
home will never lose her throne, and
death itself will only be the annexation
Of heavenly prin"ipaii'ies.
When you want to get your grandest
idea cfa queen, You DO not think of
Catherine of Russia, OF of Anne Of Eng
land, or Marie Theresa OF Germany; hut
when you think @of the plain women
who sat opposite your father al the
table, or walked with him arm-in-arm
down lifc's pathway; sometimes to the
thanksgiving banquet, sometimes to
the grave, but always Notwithstanding
your petty griefs, correcting your
childish waywardness, joining in your
infantile sports, listening to your even
ing prayers, toiling for you with needle,
or at the spinningw heel, and on cold
nights wrapping you up snug and warm
And then at last on that day when she
lay in the back room dying, and you
saw her take those ;;lill hands with which
she toi|ed for you SO long, and put them
together in adying prayer that com
menled you to the God whom she had
taught you to trust-Oh! she was the
queen! The clarlots of God came down
to fetch her; and as she went in, all
heaven rose up. You cannot think OF
her now without a rush of tenderness
that stjrs the deep foundations of soul
and you feel as much child again as
when YOU cried On her lap; and if you
could bring her back again to speak
just once more your name as tenderly
as she used to speak it, you would be
willing to throw yourself on the grounG
and kiss the sod that covers her, crying
"Mother! Moth err" All! she was the
queen-she was the queen. Now cal
you tell me how many thousand miles
| a women like that would have to trave
down before she got to the ballot-box'
Compared with this work Of traiuin;
kings and queens for God and eternity
how Insignificant seems all this worl
| of voting for aldermen and common
and sherifs, aad constables, and mayors
and presidents. To make one sucf
grand woman asI described how many
thousands would you want of those who
go in the round Of godlessness, and
dissipation, distorting their body unit
in their monstrosities they seem to outd,
the dromedary and hippopotamus
going as far toward disgraceful appare
rs they dare go, 50 as not to be arrested
! of the police their behavior sorrow Il
the good and a caricature of the vicious
land an insult to that God who made
them women and not gorgons; ane
Itramping On, down through frivolou,
land dissipated life, to temporal ant
eternal damnation. n Il j s#
